Leopard Gecko eye problem

Hi,
I have two leopards that are currently housed together that were to ship to a new home tonight!
They are housed on sand that does not have the calcium added.
MY question is that one of my geckos now seem to have a problem opening his eyes.He can open them. He ate dubias last night and they were open. Almost seems like the light bothers them. He looks like a person who is very tired and is having trouble keeping eyes open.
This has only happened since last night. I put him in a sauna and eyes were open then....
I am concerned sending them to a new home, not knowing what is wrong. Is this a sign of a disease? Could the other have bitten his head (no visible sign) sand in his eye?? I just don't want to pass along this guy knowing something could be wrong. I know nothing about Leo's and their diseases.
My buying is only paying for shipping. I just wanted them placed in a good home.
Thanks for any info

Ryoo had trouble opening her eye a while ago because she had gotten some shed stuck in it. If you take a q-tip soaked in warm water and gently wipe around and over his closed eye, it might help his eye open. Do not wipe the eye itself though. Other than that I'd ask a vet about it.
